I like the way the burly looked on your ride. you mentioned something about your back. are these bars hard on the back?
Yes after about 45 min or so of riden i would get pretty good back pain in between the shoulder blades... Thing about bars.. everybody is different in their comfort and beachbars were not for me. They look sick though!...lol
And also when making sharp turns i needed to kick out my legs so the bars wouldn't hit them.
Not sure how I missed this thread.Congrats Nikkon.I know you will love that wheel.Those Carlini Evil Knuckles look sick.Looks like they would be pretty comfy as well.

I forgot the most important reason for my handlebar's swap, I have a bad L-3 and being tall does not play nice with beachbars.
